After a few false starts I started to get contractions at 9pm on wednesday the 10th (my 21st Birthday ) But I didnt want to get anyones hopes up incase they stopped (again) so I made up an excuss when DH went to bed and stayed up to time them by 4am they were 5 minuted apart and fairly strong so I decided to have a shower so I could wash my hair (weird I know by I didnt want to met LO with dirty hair ) And when DH got up at 6am I told him not to go to work as it was def happening. The contractions stayed regular but at 10:30 completly stopped When they hadn't started within an hour DH went to work and I went to bed but woke up an hour later with strong contractions yay! By 3pm I had a show and the contractions were 3 minutes apart so I called DH home and called the midwife.She came round and examind me and I was 2cm-told me to go to the birthing centre when the pain got really bad.
At 11pm we went in-I wasonly 3cm so came home again
At 3am we went back and got into the birth pool. It was going really well the water was a great pain relief!! By 7am the midwives said that the contraction are really strong and thought i was 9-10cm so decided to check me-I was only 7cm!!!So they broke my waters cue Gas and Air I loved it!!! By 9am I had another midwife who decided I needed to go to the hospital so we got rushed with flashin lights and sirens in an ambulance(i was out of it so dont really remember much!!) My DH had phoned our parents and they were there waiting!! When the doc examined and checked baby she gave me 2hours or I would have to have a c-section she also said i was actualy still only 5cm and 'massaged' my cervix to 8cm OUCH!!!
It all happened pretty fast after that and it was time to push.

It took 1hour 20 mins to push our beautiful baby William into the world on Friday 12th at 2:12pm weighing 9lb12oz!!!

-But it only seemed like minutes (despite getting leg cramp at the worst possible time )I did it with just gas and air! and only had 2stitches and 2 grazes.
An hour later Williams Grandparents come in for a hug and by 5pm I had a shower and we were on our way home!!!
